do you know if it works with the 2011 27 inch imac?

[crfowler]

@elua16 I wouldn't see why not, their were a number of tweaks on the inside of the machine, but I don't believe there were any changes with the actual case design.

Hi, it looks great, but how about the connectors on the back, are you able to attach usb, power and ethernet with this short distance to the wall?

[crfowler]

@melsentube It is a little tight, but the chords do fit back there, But there is room for them to fit. It's not that easy plugging everything in place because of the tough viewing angle of the ports. I leave my USB cables plugged into the imac, and generally disconnect the hardware at the device end instead.

Well done!

Does it work on a 21 inch iMac??

FYI, in the event anyone else struggles with unlatching the stand on a 24" iMac (Aluminum), I couldn't get the white plastic card to insert well enough--it was too tight. No joy.

The resolution for me was to lay the computer down (rather than stick to the instruction to unlatch it while standing). This removed the tension on the stand and allowed me to insert the card, unlatch the lock, and remove the stand. After two hours of struggling upright, it took 30 seconds laying flat. :-)

Could you please tell me if this mount would work? (Just type this on amazon.com it will be the first result) "Cheetah Mounts ALAMLB LCD TV Wall Mount Bracket with Full Motion Swing Out Tilt and Swivel Articulating Arm"

@crfowler

I've been looking for a wall mount for my 27" since my desk is only 15 inches deep :-/ I hope you wouldn't mind sharing what brand and model you used here and how it has worked out for you.
